Pick me, pick me! I wanna be flogged by Linda!

(Peter, I know you're watching, the above comment was strictly posted for amusement. I did not mean anything disrespectful or distasteful. I certainly don't harbor any fantasies of Miss Linda sensuously beating me with limp pasta as I writhe in agony begging forgiveness. No siree.)

Arthur, Aside from the bald-faced hypocracy of what they said... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Today we decide to close the web because we don’t want your money transferred into hacker’s E-Gold account anymore." They sure didn't transfer it back to me! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That is such a dodgy thing to put in an email. Like, what was going through their minds? Was this some sort of justification? I think not. That sort of thing actually makes honest internet marketing so much more difficult. Tell me that it hasn't made you just a bit more steely now. Gary Simpson PS: Bob... Mr Sigmund Freud would have had a field day with that comment and a field month with the explanation! LOL ;-)

Would you believe that I received another email from them this morning. "Hello Arthur Bolduc, thought success14days.com is down. I want to announce you that is back and better. We have some big plans. One of them is bonus on upgrading. If you upgrade from e-gold, you recieve 100 free credits and if you upgrade more than $20 you recieve a 10% bonus instant cash. be prepared to recieve the best offer from success14days.com WM" Like they actually expect me to trust them again! Do they think I have already forgotten about the money they took?

Hi Bob, I did not mean anything disrespectful or distasteful. I certainly don't harbor any fantasies of Miss Linda sensuously beating me with limp pasta as I writhe in agony begging forgiveness. No problem Bob but in order to even be considered for the flogging were you looking for the $1,500 website or the $2,500 one?

Hi Arthur, It just goes to show how shameless some of these people are. Here is the message they sent you: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ""Hello Arthur Bolduc, thought success14days.com is down. I want to announce you that is back and better. We have some big plans. One of them is bonus on upgrading. If you upgrade from e-gold, you recieve 100 free credits and if you upgrade more than $20 you recieve a 10% bonus instant cash. be prepared to recieve the best offer from success14days.com WM" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I ran this through my BS filter and got the translation for you. The true meaning is as follows: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Hello {insert name of intended victim}, Though our scam is temporarily disabled, I want to tell you that we are planning to take even more money off unsuspecting people soon. We have some big scams planned. One of them is to lure you with a sham we are calling a bonus. If you are silly enough to believe us you will receive 100 completely useless credits free. And if you donate more than $20 in cold hard cash you receive three-fifths of five-eighths of nothing in pretend cash. Be prepared to receive the best scam from us in the next 14 days - sooner if we can trick people faster." WM = Wealth Maker (me only - ha ha!) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When you said: "Like they actually expect me to trust them again! Do they think I have already forgotten about the money they took?"... Every time one of these things flops and takes everybody's money (and hopes) the people who they have duped just get more steely in their belief that the internet is a place where thieves abound. Unfortunately, This has a "rub-off" effect on honest marketers too. Arthur, they won't get you the second time round but they will get a new batch of victims. That is how they operate. I think I mentioned it somewhere else on this forum - I call them the "swirling masses" - fresh meat! Gary Simpson
